Hear From Our Clients!

RxDx Productions (Fall 2025)

"Starting from my scattered pile of too many ideas, the CYC team applied their collective intelligence to identify the most practical and profitable directions for my company. They were considerate of my preferences, responsive to feedback, prompt, and professional in their research and presentations. Their work was equal to the deliverables of other established consulting firms I've dealt with in the past. I can't say enough about this one-of-a-kind opportunity."

Rasa Spa (Fall 2025 & Spring 2025)

"We’ve been very fortunate to work with CYC twice in two years. I believe we walked away with several new initiatives we can dive into for the spring semester. I really appreciated everyone on the team with their intentions and follow through."
